Get Your Adrenaline Fix

Thrill-seekers are probably missing their roller coaster rides more than anything these days. Lucky for you, there are plenty of virtual reality roller coaster experiences to be had in cyberspace, and you don’t even have to wait in line to enjoy them.

Subscribe to a Travel Vlog

If you spend a lot of time on social media and are longing to explore the world, you should check out some top travel vloggers and live vicariously through them for a while.

Before You Go

There are a couple of ways you can prepare to optimize your virtual exploration experiences. First, make sure your PC or whatever device you’ll use on your virtual journeys is protected by using a VPN (Virtual Private Network). A VPN keeps your system safe by masking your IP address and encrypting all data that’s sent or received from your device. Get a VPN free trial and give it a shot before you commit.
